You know, that ranks him near the bottom in the NHL.

He got killed through screens.

Smaller guy.

I love his game.

He plays an amazing game.

But there are limitations to size.

Columbus could not have played better defensive hockey from the time that Bonas took over to now.

You don't get any better than that.

The best team defending off the rush.

The best team at five on five.

Defensive zone structure, top 10.

This was a team that was built to get in, but they couldn't protect around the front of their net in a way that almost they would have to initiate more block shots at the point and be more aggressive to not let those sifters through.

Fair enough.

You know, I think a big piece of this, Borny, is finding out where the goalies have played this past season that have had a down year because those are the easiest ones to attract to your team.

It's not going to be easy for somebody to get, let's just say, Devin Cooley away from Calgary because they also have Wolf.

But if you could, that's where you'd go.

Okay.

if you want to go for a top guy that's capable of handling more of a load and he's a big guy and he moves like a small guy, I have a lot of time for Devin Cooley.

Now on the flip side of that, there are goalies that have won before that are having down years.

Okay.
